Chapter 35
Morwenna didn't hesitate in her refusal.
She had been thinking about taking the opportunity to give those who bullied her a good thrashing.
But Morwenna held back since they were all smiles.
However, her refusal immediately sparked their discontent.
"We asked you to hang 'cause we dig you. You really gonna diss us like that?"
“Someone of your status should be breaking down doors to get into our circle. What’s with the high and mighty act?”
“What could you possibly be busy with? Busy getting a job, huh? Don’t bother. You’ve offended us and won’t find work anywhere in Rosefrost Hollow.”
That set Morwenna off.
So, these were the culprits, making it impossible for her to get a job.
Smirking at Morwenna, Barclay boasted, “It’s just about finding a job, right? Hang out with us for a day, and I’ll have a job lined up for you tomorrow. How about that?”
Morwenna's face tensed, her eyes flashing dangerously.
Barclay instinctively stepped back, haunted by a bad feeling, as if fearing Morwenna might lash out again.
But then, Morwenna suddenly smiled. “Okay, I’ll go out with you guys, and you’ll handle my job.”
Thinking to appease her for the time, Barclay quickly agreed, “Sure.”
Morwenna blinked her beautiful eyes, her voice sweet and soft. “You better keep your word.”
She had a radiant and bright smile, which dazzled Barclay so much that he momentarily forgot what she was talking about.
Morwenna followed Barclay out.
There were way too many folks around. It just wasn't the spot to start a fight.
She wanted to see what these people were up to.
She considered herself law-abiding, kind, and sincere, having done no wrong.
Since she was innocent, those bullying her were undoubtedly in the wrong.
In the car, Barclay casually inquired, “Morwenna, where did you come from before Rosefrost Hollow?”

“And what’s your relationship with Stuart? How did you get into Windcharm Villas?”
“I promised Norbert I’d take care of Stuart.”
Morwenna had indeed promised Norbert to look after Stuart. On the day they had a secret marriage, Stuart insisted on keeping it hidden, embarrassed by the relationship.
Now that they separated, she definitely couldn’t reveal their past.
Barclay questioned her the whole way, and Morwenna answered casually.
Barclay concluded that Morwenna was just a maid.
At Windcharm Villas, she did laundry, cooked, cleaned, and even gardened.
But since Norbert sent her, she got special treatment. Stuart had arranged for her to stay at Windcharm Villas to honor Norbert.
And wasn’t she driven out already?
A maid was initially out of his concern, but Adelaide had become so upset that she fell ill.
If Adelaide was unhappy, this maid deserved a lesson.
Morwenna was unaware of what Barclay was thinking.
The group led her to a gigantic amusement park.
Colorful rides, smiling faces everywhere, and variously dressed characters and princesses made her feel like stepping into a fairy-tale world.
Morwenna had only glimpsed amusement parks online and was just bursting with curiosity.
Barclay called out, “Morwenna, come on. What do you want to try? We’ll take you there.”
Morwenna was skeptical. Were these people only taking her out for fun? She didn’t believe it!
“I don’t want to play. Just looking is fine,” Morwenna declined.
She wanted to try the rides, but after seeing the hefty prices at the entrance, she decided to watch.
It was too expensive. Morwenna wouldn’t waste her money.
Seeing was as good as playing.
Barclay and the others exchanged a look.
Soon, one of them brought over a thick stack of tickets.
Barclay waved the tickets at Morwenna, saying, “See, we’ve got all the tickets, and everyone’s included. It’ll be a waste if you don’t play.”
Hating to waste anything, Morwenna hesitated.
Seizing the moment, Barclay stuffed the stack of tickets into her hands. “If you’re not gonna play here, just throw them away.”
